How long did it take for your car to arrive from the port?

For those of you who ordered your C63s, how long did it take, roughly, for your car to make the journey from the port to the dealer? I was informed today that my car was at the port. I'm hoping it will arrive within the next two weeks, and sooner rather than later.

Thanks in advance.

It depends on the distance between port and the dealership..
Where are you located?
Cuz from Halifax to Toronto will roughly take 1 week, that's what my sale told me

Thanks Hans! I'm going to wait until the car comes in before I finalize anything. But if everything goes according to plan and I go through with it, an ECU mod will certainly not be out of the question.

Always good to keep your options open! I know I didn't make up my mind until the last 3 weeks... after thinking about it for 3 years....
